Event Information

Below you will find a summary of key changes for 2024 that will impact you as an Exhibitor or Contractor, but please make sure to read the whole manual for full details. The manual provides both recommendations and mandatory rules.

• NEW for 2024 – Stand Build Waste – to help reduce the overall waste at ILTM Cannes this year we will be working with GreenBee Event Upcycling Team to help manage and remind contractors of their responsibilities for waste management during the build up and breakdown periods of the event. Please be aware that:
  • Each stand contractor is and remains responsible for their own waste.
  • During set-up, please help to sort your cardboard/wood waste and take it to the collection points. Please click here for plan showing the location of the collection points. We also encourage you to limit the quantity of waste in general.
  • During dismantling all waste must be removed from site by the stand contractor, no sorting will be provided during this time. However, if you require a waste removal service, the Palais provides a waste wood recycling service. It is for all wood types (OSB, MDF, laminate panels, raw timber slats etc).  Please contact the venue directly before the show.  Only wood waste is accepted. 
• Exhibition Timetable – Provides information of the build up, show open and breakdown dates and times.
• Badges & Passes    
  •  ILTM Cannes 2024 is pre-registration only. All attendees need to pre-register online prior to arrival.
  • All stand personnel required on the stand during the event days, including stand-by contractors, catering and hostess staff must be allocated a badge through the exhibitor portal and will come out of the exhibitor badge allocation.
  • Contractors are now required to register in advance for access during build and breakdown for contact tracing purposes.

Exhibiting Delegate Badges

Anyone staffing a stand at ILTM 2024 will need their own Exhibiting Delegate badge. This badge grants access to the venue during build up and breakdown as well as the show on appointment days and ILTM networking events. Your main stand holder (MSH) can purchase Exhibiting Delegate badges through the Badge Portal once it becomes available. Please note that ILTM uses photo badging, so you will be required to submit a passport-style headshot to obtain a badge.

Contractor Badges 

Contractor passes are required by any personnel that will be entering the exhibition during the build up and breakdown and must be displayed at all times whilst onsite.    

Before arriving onsite please ensure that you and your team have received, read and understood the site rules - a copy can be downloaded here.

The contractor pre-registration form can be completed here. For any new registration, please report to the onsite portacabin.

PLEASE NOTE THESE PASSES WILL ONLY BE VALID FOR THE BUILD UP AND BREAKDOWN PERIODS.

Maintenance Badges 

Contractor Passes - Show Open
